Are you struggling with pain from sciatica? Don't continue to suffer, Chiropractic Partners can help!

What is the sciatic nerve? 

This nerve originates in the lower back and runs across both hips, down both legs, and below each knee. That's where it branches off into other nerves down to the feet. The sciatic nerve is the largest and longest nerve in the human body. Sciatica is a term that is used to describe pain in the lower spine and follows the sciatic nerve. If you think that you're struggling with sciatica, visit us at any of our Chiropractic Partners locations in the North Carolina Triangle. After an examination, we'll formulate a definitive diagnosis and create a treatment plan that's intended to eliminate your pain and restore your mobility.

Symptoms of Sciatica

Sciatica can come and go. It's almost always caused by irritation of the sciatic nerve from compression and impingement. Although only one leg is typically affected, it might cause pain in the left leg in one episode and pain in the right leg in another episode. Our patients describe sciatic pain differently too. It might involve a sharp shooting pain down a leg, while others might describe it as a burning electrical sensation. If left untreated, it can become debilitating.

Sciatica Treatment 

In treating sciatica, our goal is to relieve pressure on the sciatic nerve. Our highly effective chiropractic care and treatment might involve painless chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression therapy, flexion-distraction techniques, or other related therapies. All of our chiropractic treatment is provided without the risks posed by medication or the dangers involved in surgery. When you first visit our office, our chiropractor will assess your musculoskeletal system to determine the root cause of your sciatic nerve pain before creating a chiropractic care plan to address it.
